Recalling the feeling of 2016
We sat in the field and screamed to The Pixies
Sharing our beers, I hoped we'd still be here
In three years time
Caught in a moment, a picturesque scene
The girl from that summer, the memory fading
Friends that we lost, friends we still see
And every "I'm so sorry"
But we're not seventeen anymore
I can't call around and arrive at your door
With the words unsaid still resting inside
Mistakes that I made still as sharp as a knife
The roads that we paved are such hellish sights
But at least we can say that we tried
While the wind sings Where Is My Mind

We spent our last Halloween on someone else's couch
I lost beer pong to the dream team
Reminded me of back when we were younger
When we played foosball in the summer
Catching feelings for the other
Hard to admit
But you took all the risks
Cause I lacked confidence
Remember you saying you hated the rain?
It seemed so romantic, I couldn't explain
Held your umbrella, you said I could keep it
For the walk home
I guess my innocence just goes to show
Don't get too comfortable
Summer seems like Spanish beaches and ice cold beers
Singing ABBA into the deep blue
Takes me back to Mamma Mia in my room
Can you believe that they moved the bus stop
Where we had our first kiss, the one that I fucked up?
I didn't know what to do, and you just laughed it off
We both lacked confidence
Remember you saying you hated the rain?
It seemed so romantic, I couldn't explain it
Held your umbrella, you said I could keep it
For the walk home
Remember you saying you hated the rain?
Man fuck the semantics, I'm not gonna change it
We both called it love, so where the fuck could we have gone wrong?
I guess my innocence just goes to show
Don't get too comfortable
So what if I don't?
So what if I stay home forever
Instead of moving on?
Instead of moving on
Instead of moving on
Instead of moving on

i'm still checking storylines
to see if i can catch a glimpse of
the people that left me behind
as if it makes a difference
but i'm so set in sedimentary
chasing after long lost memories
if i can't keep the one that loved me
could i ever learn to love myself?
oooooooh
things aren't gonna change
not as long as i lay in wait for
shit to happen out of my control
"what if she returned?"
i'd hope we learned
that patience is a virtue we can only earn through hurt
"but is it deserved?"
well does she know her own worth?
i only want the best for her
the time is hers to burn
ooooooooh
things aren't gonna change
not as long as i lay in wait for
love to reciprocate
what else can i say?
i'm not gonna change
not as long as i keep on waiting for
shit to happen out of my control
and it feels so cold
i wish it hadn't hurt so much
i can't control the way it builds up
and i keep screaming my throat raw
i never wanna fall in love again
could we at least pretend
it never felt right in the moment?

Make space and lie awake
Hide undercover in your bed
Wonder how long it takes
Before you have to leave again
How all these rays of light
Reflect off you and blind me instead
And will I feel this way again
When I have no reflection
Make haste, dont be late
Or you may never love again
The stars say we dont make sense
Barely compatible as friends
What if we tried to rearrange
The planets for our own sake
Who cares, that's never gonna change
And I dont want to test fate
Whoaaaa
Whoaaaa
Whoaaaa
Whoaaaa

I never believed she would love me
I never thought anyone could
Now I break down in tears
Cry for the years spent
Watering withering hopeful words
My dreams, they feel more like nightmares
And I never want them to end
She always appears
The worst of my fears
And I'm smiling again
Can I ever be happy
Without her to hold?
Can I ever be happy
When the world is so cold?
Always wake up thinking I'm dying
Bleeding from the hole in my soul
She wanted to talk
All pain was resolved
So why am I all alone
She said "Your dreams, they can't last forever
I know that you wish that they could
But wishing on eyelashes
Won't make me love you
And sleeping more won't do any good"
Can I ever be happy
Without her to hold?
Can I ever be happy
When the world is so cold?
So cold, so cold, so cold
Serotonin overdose
You're the one I like the most
Though nothing you said really spoke to me
Wait for my heart to explode
Watch it jump right out my throat
And wear it on my damned and bloody sleeve

infinite bullshit
03:26

Encompassing the entirety
Of the time we spent in love
Was the childish sense of an adultness
Making plans, painting pictures
Pinky promised, didn't you?
Ask the same damn thing that we did last week
"Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?"
Guess we never should have promised
It was dumb, naïve and thoughtless
Oh we thought we were the authors of the story
But we only exist in the lines
Yeah we thought we were the authors of the story
But we only exist in the lines
And it all makes sense, oh the grand pretence
Disappearing act, in a moment you'll be gone
I've seen this one before
History just keeping score
Constant focus on the past
Tends to prevent the motion forward
But I'll admit
That I never had the courage to quit
I dusted all the fingerprints
Kept track of all the evidence
For a love that would not fit
The pieces of the puzzle you left
I tried to fill the gaps once they were set
But it was never you
I just held onto
What I could not accept
What I could not accept
It's just infinite bullshit
It's never a win-win
I know nothing lasts forever
But the hardest part is learning to live
With pain
Like the days I wouldn't say it
And you always seemed to notice
But you never really said anything
Like the days you wouldn't say it
And I thought I always noticed
But I never really said anything
We both just got so fucked up
And we never really said any
We never really said any-
Stop.
